Be very careful about stereotypes. They are all too often the sign of a closed mind and rigid thinking.
We're you referring to my cat's website?? I wouldn't call that a "business" page ... unless that sort of humor passes for business in your culture. If that's the case ... then ... oooookaaay, whatever floats your boat.
Personally, "Newton's Alley" was never more than a way to have some fun. Especially Newton's Diary, which was a text and graphic recreation of one of the adventures "the cats" had in our chat room and on rec.pets.cats.
We used to do a lot of what a few people have done here. Namely, start a story, and then let the next poster carry it on from there. Instead of pandas, however, we dealt pretty much exclusively in cats with the occasional dog (there was this one German Shepherd named Giuliani who loved cats and used to come to all the parties. In fact, as I recall, she was the guest of honor at the Annual Jellicle Ball one year and arrived in a yellow ballgown.)
Yeah .... who would have thought I was clinically insane??
